Peggy Morgan from the Department of Labor will lead a roundtable discussion for older job seekers at Marshall Public Library on October 21 at 10 am.
This free and informal discussion is for older, experienced workers who are looking for a new job or are re-entering the workforce. Many experienced workers are returning to work or are looking for new jobs due to the state of the economy. Older job seekers offer skills and expertise to potential employers but they also face particular challenges. If you would like to participate in this roundtable discussion, please bring your questions, concerns, and tips on job seeking to the library on October 21 and join in this important discussion.
Amy Campbell, Reference Librarian
